Chapter 142 I hate you like a stone (4200)

There is a node in Dusk's original memory.

During one of his missions, he discovered a dilapidated ruins and obtained a secret recipe in the ruins that could make people fake death. This secret medicine can even allow the Evil Night Stranger to deceive the mark on his hand and the Decay Knight.

In that mission, what we came to at dusk was a tourist city surrounded by mountains and lakes. The mission goal is also to hunt vampires. This seems to be an important lair of the vampires.

At the yellow dining table, Ka Xiu narrowed his eyes and thought.

He was trying his best to recall the vague memories of dusk.

In my impression, it was summer when Dusk performed the task of Black Rain Villa. The city he came to had just held a grand local festival, and Jinghu City and Mingshan City seemed to have such a custom. On this day, citizens from the two cities will go to Jinghu Lake to collect water. Then he would hold either a wooden bucket or a wooden basin, and a branch with leaves in his hand, and keep throwing water on the street.

Passers-by will be warmly received regardless of their status. If you don’t want to get wet, it’s best not to go out on this day.

This festival is called Mulin Festival. It seems to be a festival that gradually evolved from religious customs. It is somewhat similar to the Holy Bath Festival in many counties in the south. In the minds of local residents in Jinghu and Mingshan cities, Jinghu water has magical effects. If you sprinkle the lake water all over your body, it can bring good luck throughout the year.

Mulin Festival is held on July 1st every year.

Hunting vampires in the dense forests of the mountains at dusk, I accidentally found a cave. And along the dark cave, a dilapidated ruins were discovered, where the secret medicine was obtained. He originally wanted to continue exploring, but sensed the danger and withdrew.

Card Xiu tried his best to recall, but he could only perceive some blurry images and the process of fragmentation. It is not easy to find a small cave in such a huge mountain range with this information. Moreover, he could not guarantee that the dilapidated ruins in the cave were the Yaqaba ruins that Black Rain Villa asked him to find.

The memory of dusk is still too vague. Recalling it is as hazy as a dream, and I can't remember anything.

If it hadn't been for the coincidence of several keywords colliding together, Card Xiu might not have been able to trigger that memory.

"First get familiar with the environment here, and then hire a local tour guide to bring a map to look for clues in Dusk's memory..."

Ka Xiu narrowed his eyes and drank the last sip of milk.

The next day, Jinghu City Police Station, Chief’s Office.

Kenneth was pressing his temples with a headache on his face. The continuous disappearance cases in Jinghu City could no longer be suppressed. As the director, he was under great pressure. Lately, I haven't been able to sleep well every night, and when I woke up the next day, my hair, which was not thin, was falling out in large clumps. Kenneth was accelerating his evolution into baldness.

But what is gratifying is that the "professionals" sent by the county arrived yesterday. The leader of this group had a secret conversation with him in the office yesterday, and Director Kenneth learned some shocking secrets that were dark and terrifying.

It is an unimaginable other world hidden under the peaceful human society. Human-eating dark creatures, absurd and unknown strange existences, mercury hunters with extraordinary powers...and this is just the tip of the iceberg. More dark and chaotic regular scenes are hidden in the deep and silent hollow seabed.

As the saying goes, professional people do professional things.

The group of people who call themselves the Mercury Hunters have begun investigating the serial disappearances in Jinghu City, hoping it will be done soon...

Kenneth sighed and rubbed his eyes. He took a small stack of documents from the right side of the desk and prepared to work.

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

There were three knocks on the door, and then the door handle was twisted open. Kenneth knew immediately who came in, his niece Cathy. He just graduated from school three months ago and joined the Jinghu City Police Department. He is still an intern now.

He sighed, put down his pen and raised his head.

"What's wrong? Officer Cathy."

Directly opposite was a beautiful girl wearing a dark blue police uniform. Tall and fair-skinned. Cathy has short, sleek hair, clear black eyes, eyebrows as straight as a knife, and a calm color between her face and eyebrows.

"Report to Director Kenneth, I would like to apply to be transferred to the Criminal Division or Special Mobile Division." The girl said, closing the door with her backhand.

"What are you doing in the Criminal Division and Special Mobile Division!?"

Kenneth's eyes widened.

"Recently, there have been serial disappearances in Jinghu City. I want to fight on the front line with my colleagues from the Criminal Division to bring the criminals to justice! If the Criminal Division can't get in, the Special Mobile Division can do it, uncle." Kai. Akane smiled and took a few steps towards the desk.

"Don't be so playful! This won't work. Just stay in the office. Don't do anything special for me during at least three months of internship. Go back." Kenneth frowned and waved his hand: " Also, don’t call me uncle at work..."

"Okay...Uncle." Cathy was obviously feeling a little disappointed.

"Go, go, don't disturb my work."

Kenneth shook his head. The recent period has been very dangerous, and front-line police officers such as the Criminal Division and Special Mobile Division will probably have to cooperate with the mercury hunters sooner or later. If you encounter what the mercury hunter calls a blood-sucking monster, you may not be able to avoid casualties even with a gun.

He didn't want his nephew to be missing arms or legs, otherwise his sister would go to the police station with a kitchen knife and kill people...

Time passed by and it was past four o'clock in the afternoon, almost five o'clock.

Cathy is off duty as a police intern in the office. She has an uncle who is the chief, so naturally she will not be given too busy work. An office with moderate intensity is just right.

After rejecting the invitation to have dinner with other colleagues in the office, Cathy, who felt a little disappointed, changed into casual clothes and planned to go home directly.

She thought about telling her mother about it during dinner in the evening, hoping that her mother could help from the side. But Cathy was also a little scared, fearing that her mother would be with her uncle, and she didn't want to be involved in front-line police work like the criminal unit.

So now she is a little confused and distracted. Unknowingly, I reached the corner of an unfamiliar alley.

Cathy came to her senses and was about to go back the way she came when she suddenly noticed the secluded avenue on the side of the corner. A man and a woman were walking along the road. They both seemed to be tourists. The two sides looked relatively unfamiliar and kept a certain distance from each other.

However, the man walking behind suddenly started to speed up.

He quickly caught up with the woman in a few steps.

Cathy's eyes widened and she was about to rush over.

I saw that the man did not want to rob money or sex as expected, but just stretched out his right hand and gently patted the woman's shoulder.

The woman turned her head in confusion and immediately froze on the spot.

Due to the distance, Cathy didn't hear what the two said. I saw the man turn around and walk towards an alley next to the avenue, and the woman followed him dully step by step.

The two parties were holding hands, looking intimate and ambiguous.

"Is this something I can watch at my age?"

Cathy was dumbfounded. She originally thought she would encounter a criminal case, but she didn't expect it to be a civil case. According to the laws of the Hong Lebanese Federation, such cases are generally punishable by detention for not less than ten days but not more than fifteen days, and a fine of not more than one hundred federal dollars.

If the circumstances are relatively minor, the offender shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than ten federal dollars. If it is a public place, such as on the streets, then three days of detention will be added.

Although I am a little surprised, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still flesh.

Cathy is 50% responsible, 30% curious, and 20% excited. He took a step forward and followed quietly all the way.

And in a shadowed corner that she didn't see, a man wearing a black coat and sunglasses also followed.

The man's whereabouts are more concealed and he seems to have received professional training.

On the outskirts of Jinghu City, in an open space next to a small town.

Ka Xiu narrowed his eyes and looked up at the mountains in the distance.

The sky was dyed deep red, like a magnificent ocean. Under the sunset, the mountain becomes blurry, and the sunlight turns into strips of golden-red light that spread from the mountain to the dense forest, and finally reach the Mirror Lake. The lake reflects the light and evaporates like a layer of hazy mist.

The sparkling lake is connected to the forest sea with reflective leaves not far away, plus the white town next to it. Immediately, a moving and beautiful oil landscape painting was sketched out.

The scenery in Jinghu City is really good and worth a visit.

If you come here as a tourist to escape the heat in the summer, it will be a very pleasant thing. But Card Xiu is not a tourist. He has something to do when he comes to Jinghu City.

Starting yesterday afternoon, including the whole day today, Kaxiu spent time looking for the cave in his memory at dusk. To this end, he also hired two local guides and two hunters who often went into the Alfama Mountains to hunt, and they were divided into two groups to search everywhere.

But unfortunately, the Alfama Mountains are too big. Even the woodland on the side near Jinghu City and Mingshan City is extremely vast. Even with the information about the vicinity of Mirror Lake, Card Xiu and the other five people had been busy for two days and still could not find any useful traces. Not only that, a tour guide accidentally fell and injured himself during the trip and was sent to his home in Blue Lake Town to recuperate.

After a bad start, Ka Xiu felt a little depressed.

He picked up the map and looked at it again, comparing it with the blurry pictures in his mind. Card Xiu walked along the Mirror Lake.

After walking only a few hundred meters, he saw two figures walking towards the mountain forest by the lake in the distance. Couple? No, both are men. But who would go into the woods at dusk except lovers? No, maybe they are indeed a couple. Ka Xiu immediately reacted, he had no intention of pointing out other people's good deeds. I just compared the map and walked all the way in the original direction.

As the footsteps passed by the place where the two people were standing, Card Xiu suddenly frowned and felt a familiar smell.

Dark creatures.

Card Xiu's perception is already sharp, and he has killed many dark creatures in his killing missions. So he reacted instantly, like a wolfhound smelling the tempting smell of food.

I happened to be in a depressed mood, so I killed someone to relieve my fatigue.

Ka Xiu followed the smell and followed him.

In the woods ahead, trees stand straight. It is very close to Jinghu Lake and the tourist area, so the trees are not very tall.

The spacing is also sparse, and traces of garbage can occasionally be seen. It shows that tourists often visit the woods.

Two figures walked all the way inside from the uneven open space, and the strong man behind asked impatiently.

"Okay, honey. Just forget it here."

"Don't be so impatient."

Under the dim light, a slender young man turned around. His face is fair and cute, and his semi-long hair is curly and soft brown. Her facial features are stunning, even more refined than most girls, and she has an aristocratic elegance about her.

"Don't worry so much."

The man walked over directly.

The two began to kiss each other like lovers.

The light and shadow under the tree were mottled, and the strong man's slightly bent body suddenly froze. The young man bit down hard on the artery in the man's neck, inserting his sharp teeth directly to draw out the blood.

At the same time, toxins that can cause instant anesthesia are also injected along the teeth. The burly man froze in place.

He wanted to move and struggle, but was unable to do so. That small stream of poison seemed to have paralyzed his whole body.

The burly man was now like a blood sac, his eyes widening unwillingly, being sucked crazily by a small man.

The surroundings fell silent, except for the sound of gurgling swallows. Within a moment, the burly man's face turned pale.

After a while, everyone started to roll their eyes.

A corpse, drained of blood, flopped to the ground.

"It tastes so good..."

The young man smiled sweetly, stretched out his tongue and licked it.

Under the dim light, his lips were like perfectly ripe cherries, smeared with a layer of bright, bright red.

Blood dripped down the fangs protruding from his lips.

The next second, the fangs quickly retracted.

The young man's thin figure quickly walked towards Jinghu Lake.

After walking nearly a hundred meters, he suddenly saw a tall figure walking towards him in front of him. The boy touched his belly and felt that he was not full just now, and his mouth began to salivate again. He immediately walked over with a smile on his face.

Ten seconds later, the two sides met in an open space.

"What a muscular man!"

The figure of the man in front of him was several times larger than the strong man just now. If compared to the two, he was simply dwarfed.

The young man was secretly frightened, but more than anything he was happy.

The stronger the muscles, the stronger the physique. This kind of human blood is strong enough to be sucked, like burning liquor.

He was eager to take another sip, so he didn't bother to chat and be polite. He directly used the vampire's spiritual suppression on humans, and a fearful and intimidating force quickly spread around.

The tall man opposite stood motionless by the tree.

"Haha, it's done"

The young man whistled, his flawless face showed a happy expression, and his eyes were like flowing amber.

He took a few light steps forward, and when he was close to the muscular man, he jumped slightly and bit the artery in the man's neck.

The fangs popped out and bit into the gray-white skin.

Ding!

Two pointed teeth broke and flew out.

Blood surged outward from the cross section.

"Ah!" The young man covered his mouth with a painful expression.

"Is it hard?" Suddenly a voice came from above.

"Like a stone..." The young man said bitterly: "Huh?!"

He immediately realized something was wrong and was about to step backwards. A big hard hand reached over and pulled with a huge force, suddenly pulling the panicked boy back to Ka Xiu.

A tall figure blocked the sunset and cast a large shadow, instantly covering the young man's entire figure.

"Let's get some useful information. As long as it's useful, I can use it to buy your life. Of course, you can also choose to struggle or resist. That would be more interesting. I just need a stress-relieving toy today..."
